JD Wetherspoon is set to open its first ever pub in London's Theatreland district, with a new West End mega-boozer taking over part of what was once the Trocadero. The pub will be known as Piccadilly Hall, named in tribute to the original Piccadilly Hall, the 17th century mansion that gave its name to Piccadilly Circus. It will open at 30 Shaftesbury Avenue, most recently home to the now-shuttered Coyote Ugly bar.
Details of the New Venue
A launch date for the latest pub from the budget boozer chain has not yet been revealed, but the space will be over 3,600 square feet and will fit 280 covers. It will be open daily from 7am to midnight, serving breakfast as well.
This follows news that Wetherspoon will be opening a new watering hole at Paddington Station. The proposed new pub will span 3,600 square feet across two floors, including a mezzanine in the station's former ticket hall, with direct access to the Bakerloo line. It will join two other recently opened railway Wetherspoons: Captain Flinders at Euston and The Lion and The Unicorn at Waterloo.
Other Recent Developments
Earlier this year, Westminster Council granted Wetherspoons a license to operate a pub and restaurant on the Strand, right next to Charing Cross station.
